About
The coach behind the studio
Personal training the way it should be — private, attentive, and built around the person in front of me.
My approach
Why I train people one at a time
I've been coaching people one-to-one for over fifteen years, and I spent long enough of that in commercial gyms to know what good coaching needs — and it isn't what a busy gym floor allows. Attention gets split, sessions get rushed, and the person who needs the most care usually gets the least.
So I built the opposite: a private studio where one client trains at a time. It means I can watch every rep, adjust things as they happen, and give people the space to learn without feeling looked at. For a lot of my clients — particularly the ones who'd never set foot in a gym otherwise — that privacy is the reason they started at all.
The work itself is straightforward. Assess how you move, build strength around it, get your nutrition supporting the training rather than fighting it, and keep adjusting as you change. Done consistently, that's what produces results people keep.
What I stand on
Four things that don't change
Movement before load
Nothing gets heavy until it moves well. The first sessions are spent assessing how you actually move so we're building on something solid rather than reinforcing a compensation.
Private by design
The studio takes one client at a time. No waiting for equipment, no audience, no coach glancing at their phone between your sets.
Honest, not harsh
If a week hasn't gone well I'll say so — then we work out why. You'll never be shouted at, and you'll never be told everything is fine when it isn't.
Built to be kept
Quick transformations tend to come back off. The aim is strength, habits and standards you still have in five years, not just at the end of a twelve-week block.
Who I work with
Not everyone, and that's deliberate
Because the studio is one-to-one, there are only so many slots. That means I'm selective about who takes them — not on fitness level, but on commitment. I've coached people coming back from surgery, people who'd never lifted a weight, and people already strong who wanted their mechanics fixed. What they had in common was that they turned up and did the work between sessions.
If that sounds like you, the next step is a conversation. No pressure, no sales pitch — just working out whether this is the right fit for what you're after.
Before you commit
See how I actually coach
I share coaching breakdowns and training thinking on YouTube. If you want a feel for how I explain things before you get in touch, that's the easiest place to start.

Next step
Start with a conversation, not a contract
Every client starts with an informal consultation — what you want, where you're starting from, and whether I'm the right coach for it.
